Application led November l. 1905. Serial No. 285,432.

To aJ/Z whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CHARLIE C. Anmac- 'r0N, a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing i at lfVheelersburg, in the county of Scioto, State ofOhio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Plows; and Ido hereby declare the followinor to be a full, clear, and exactdescription df the invention, such as will enable others skilled in theart to which it appertains to make and use the same.

This invention relates to plows.

One object is to provide a mold board for plows embodying suchcharacteristics that it will not only turn the earth over but willpulverize the same simultaneously with the turning over of the earth.

Another object resides in the provision of an exceedingly simple,inexpensive, durable and efficient mold board provided with means forpulverizing the earth manipulated thereby.

W ith these and other objects 'in view, the present invention consistsin the combination and arran ement of parts as will he hereinafter moreully described, shown in the accompanying drawings, and articularlypointed out in the appended claim, it being understood that changes inthe forni, preportion, size and minor details of construction, Withoutde arting from the spirit or sacrificing any o the advantages of theinvention.

In the drawings there is shown a perspective view of my invention.

Referring now more particularly to the ac- :ompanying drawings, thereference character l designates a moldboard of the usual Lype except atthe rear of the mold-board iroper. The mold board, in this instance, isif an elongated form and its rear end has its I edge peculiarly formedin that the rear edge l is thickened as at 2, the forward edge of saidthickened portion being of zig-zag shape as indicated by the referencecharacter 3. This thickened portion 2 has a series of perforations 4formed transversely through it for the detachable reception of the teeth4 which latter are arranged upon an incline with ref spect to the moldboard and are heldin position by means of the set screws 5 Which'fworkin the corres ending perforations 5 leadin tions.

In the use of my improved mold-board it will he seen that after layersof earth are cut and thrown over in the usual manner they contact withand become pulverizcd by the 'slanting or inclined teeth 4 disposed atthe rear end of the mold-board.

ifi-"hat I claim is;

A mold-board comprising a body portion having its rear end increased inthickness, said thickened portion being provided with a series ofperforations formed transversely therethrough, and having a secondseries of perforations formed in its front face in coininunication withsaid transverse perforations, teeth passed through said transverseperforations, and means disposed within the second series ofperforations for engagement with the teeth, to adjustahly secure thelattcr against displacement.

In testimony whereof, I affix my signature, in presence of twowitnesses.
